Royal Canin Veterinary Diet Dog Dental

The Royal Canin Veterinary Diet Dog Dental helps maintain your dog's oral health by reducing plaque and tartar formation. It is estimated that over 80% of dogs will develop dental disease by the time they reach the age of three. Most owners notice an unpleasant or fishy smell on their breath. Many dog owners are unaware their dogs have dental problems until their vet shows them.

The bacteria that cause dental disease are combined with food particles, saliva, and salivary glands to form plaque. In addition to the tooth surface, plaque can be found underneath the gum line as well. When plaque is not mechanically removed by brushing or chewing, it reacts with the calcium in the saliva to form tartar. Gum inflammation, also known as gingivitis, is caused by bacteria living underneath the gumline. In the absence of treatment, bacteria can penetrate deeper into the soft tissues and bone surrounding the tooth.

With Royal Canin Dental, you can reduce plaque and tartar buildup on your dog's teeth in two different ways. Kibble is shaped, sized, and textured in a way that mechanically grinds plaque away from the teeth. Additionally, Royal Canin Dental contains sodium polyphosphates, which bind calcium in saliva to reduce tartar formation.

Royal Canin Dental is a balanced and complete diet for dogs with added nutrition to help keep them healthy and happy. As well as highly digestible proteins, prebiotics, and fish oil to support digestive health, it contains glucosamine, chondroitin, and omega-3 fatty acids for joint health.
